Anna’s Hummingbird
The polar vortex spilling over on Seattle gave us some rare heaps of snow, and interesting opportunities to capture wildlife that you normally don’t encounter in frigid weather in some snowy surroundings.

11/52 Hike Challenge: 07/02/19 Harry’s Ridge
It was overcast and misting rain most of the hike but it was still gorgeous even with basically the entire view of Mt St Helens obscured by fog so I imagine on a clear day it’s stunning.
The wild flowers are blooming all across the trail and there were chipmunks and humming birds sipping and scurrying around the whole path around the mountain

Mt St Helens - Memorial Day Weekend
Hiked along Hummocks Trail with the boyfriend for Memorial Day. It was a pleasant, easy hike with gorgeous scenery.

Skagit Tulip Festival!
This was my first visit to a flower farm like this, I love all the colors and textures
I had never seen so many different tulips before it was beautiful.
8/52 Hike Challenge: Kendall Peak Trail
Fiiiinally pleased with some of my work!
We only hiked out to the first lookout area so it was only about a 7 mile hike instead of the total 14 that it could’ve been but it was really fun. The trail is pretty packed down so snowshoes weren’t necessary but it looked like it would be fun to snowboard down.
We also found a cool snow tunnel dug into a drift. It had two whole rooms dug out which was pretty awesome.
